Photochromism is the reversible change of color upon exposure to light. It is a transformation of a chemical species ( photoswitch ) between two forms by the absorption of electromagnetic radiation ( photoisomerization ), where the two forms have different absorption spectra.
A photochromic eyeglass lens, part of the lens darkened after exposure to sunlight while the other part remained covered. A photochromic lens is an optical lens that darkens on exposure to light of sufficiently high frequency, most commonly ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
1: Imaging by a lens with chromatic aberration. 2: A lens with less chromatic aberration. In optics, aberration is a property of optical systems, such as lenses and mirrors, that causes the image created by the optical system to not be a faithful reproduction of the object being observed.
Focal length of lens varies with the color of light Photographic example showing a high quality lens (top) compared to a lower quality one exhibiting transverse chromatic aberration (seen as a blur and a rainbow edge in areas of contrast)
Magnetic objective lens systems have been used in TEM to achieve atomic-scale resolution while maintaining a magnetic field free environment at the plane of the sample, [31] but the method of doing so still requires a large magnetic field above (and below) the sample, thus negating any reciprocity enhancement effects that one might expect. This ...
The first camera lens with an inexpensive mass-produced molded glass aspheric element was the unnamed 12.5mm f/2.8 lens built into the Kodak Disc 4000, 6000 and 8000 (USA) cameras in 1982. It was said to be capable of resolving 250 lines per millimeter.
For the same reason sunglasses and filters were used by the American Army, especially for aviation, indeed Polaroid glasses were thought to protect aviator from sunlight but also atomic bomb explosions. [8] Cool-Ray was a division of American Optical for the sunglasses. It was the originator of the polarized sunglass as it is known today.
Some high-end sun glass brands can come with anti-scratch coating. There can be steps implemented to protect the sunglasses and prevent scratching or damage. Clean the sunglasses regularly using sunglasses cleaning products like a microfiber cloth, or a sun glass cleaner. Avoid leaving your sunglasses in extreme heat or cold, like a car.
